She always does! But it wasn&#8217;t until a couple of days later that her go-to nail artist, Natalie Minerva, shared a close-up of her nails, and nothing could have prepared us for just how cool it actually is.<\/p>\n<p>Lovato wore a strapless, fitted-yet-drapey Maticevski dress to Tuesday&#8217;s Los Angeles event, and the gorgeous gray hue definitely served as inspiration for Minerva&#8217;s manicure.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-fkZDUs kHRAYC asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eEeytc eRSvCP asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-zEXFr koTknX responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cIfZLr fHIkTW asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Demi Lovato posing in a gray strapless dress against a maroon background\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eNxvmU cfBbTk responsive-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/demi2520lovato2520gray2520dress.jpg\" title=\"demi2520lovato2520gray2520dress\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"CaptionWrapper-jYrTxZ gVBkjw caption AssetEmbedCaption-fyuOdR gAYTTS asset-embed__caption\" data-testid=\"caption-wrapper\"><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gzmcOU BaseText-eqOrNE CaptionCredit-eowWKH deqABF lnzeTN gxwcqg caption__credit\">Photo: Getty Images<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI saw what Demi was wearing for the premiere, and so gray was definitely the top contender. I\u2019ve been really into gray and cooler toned nails lately because it\u2019s so easy on the eyes,\u201d Minerva tells <em>Allure<\/em>. She filed the nails into a squoval shape and started with a coat of OPI Suzi Talks With Her Hands. \u201cThen, we added a new soft, fine pigment magnet gel I just got in Japan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a reel Minerva posted to Instagram, she adds, \u201cD said it reminded her of dolphin skin. I&#8217;m like, wait, actually, you&#8217;re right.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And while that description may sound ever so slightly icky, we cannot argue\u2014and we cannot complain.
